Anniversary Birds


I made this card some time ago and never posted it, so today it finally gets it's outing. I placed a circle on some cardstock, then sponged orange and yellow colors around it to create a full moon. The Birds were done with a SU! punch, adding snippets of plaid material as their "suits." I used a Memory Box woodland branch die to create something for them to sit on and added an anniversary stamped sentiment. The tiny birds were done with Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.

I'll share this with the following challenges:




The Triple B September Challenge - birds, blooms, butterflies (any or all)


Wishing you a wonderful day today and I hope you'll make it your best yet!
Thanks for stopping by!

I'm not sure if I still have mine or not but now you have me wondering! LOL I need to go look! Great idea for an anniversary card! TFS and I hope your enjoying this beautiful weather!

Ages since my owl punch was used so maybe it's time it had an airing 😉. Love this card and they are so smart with their plaid waistcoats.

This is adorable Carol! I love your sky and the full moon. Your owls are just so cute! I have this owl punch and don't think I've ever made a card using it. Shame on me! I really need to pull it out and use it. LOL This has to be the cutest anniversary card! Hugs, Brenda
